west end flush...

Clamped down yesterdays cut piece of roofing for the SW end this morning - marked and trimmed the purlins accordingly then screwed it down. Later in the day, I cut the roofing piece for the NW edge. Repeated the morning routine.

Thanks for the skill saw tip....hadn't even thought of that. Seeing how I don't have that blade for the saw but I do have 20 cutting blades for the grinder - I went ahead with what I had. A straight line and a steady hand is all I need for now. Only 2 more cuts to go. Will take the good advice if I ever need to cut a lot of roofing. 92,101,73,0,B
